I thought that too until I (as a former/current BMW driver) saw how many new BMWs burned down. What I found most interesting is how e.g the Korea recall did not even register on any of our German newspapers or news agency in any way co

Like the Kochs and Murdochs in the world ? Yes I would see that as an issue. Something that certain regulation could solve though. Right now, money can flow unhindered from billionairs to politicians (through numerous legal routes) which hi

I don't think they argue against all encryption (Do they?). Basically everything would become an encrypted group chat (Double Ratchet etc) where the 3rd party is the provider which can optionally encrypt/secure access. That would

How can this be patentable ? Is amazing. If given the typical job of implementing this coarse desire of a spec to 100 engineers and 90 can implement it with no problem then its just work, nothing original about it. This company was only the

I think everything you say is true and understandable. But all these 'good practices' add up to a convulted experience. I recently tried moving my family over to a password manager. Something that can be understood and managed by

Nothing is ever safe though. One can put up obstacles, potentially slow it down to make it less likely though.

Illegal spying should remain illegal. When a spy agency has nothing to loose anymore, does not have to tread carefully anymore to see which laws to break or sidestep there is no bound to the eventual corruption that will come with time
